The opening episode of Sarah Jane's second season had an impressive 0.7 million viewers watching between 4:35 and 5:05pm. Despite last year's opener - "Revenge of the Slitheen" - managing 1.3 million (meaning we've had a fall of 0.6 million since then...) this is still an impressive number. It's above the time slot's current average (400,000 viewers) and is still 6.3% of the available audience watching at the time.
By the end of Monday evening, the episode was ranked 8th on BBC IPlayer. Today that position has risen to 3rd - behind yesterday's Eastenders and James May's Big Ideas.
In other news, the SJA gang will be appearing on next Tuesday (October 7th) afternoon's edition of Blue Peter. Daniel Anthony and Thomas Knight will definitely be there - and I'm guessing (just guessing!) that they'll be joined by Anjli Mohindra, as Yasmin Paige will have already departed from the series (for both BBC One and CBBC viewers).
Here's how the BBC describes the episode: "The team grills the Sarah Jane Adventures kids and makes friends with a cute lion cub."
It airs next Tuesday, at 4:35pm.

I'm really surprised at the ratings, but considering my somewhat [and I say somewhat!] meh feelings for the eps, I could see why. That, or poor promotion on the BBC's part. I mean, Doctor Who - they were promoting the Season 4 cinema trailer for months in advance of the premiere. SJA, they're showing the cinema trailer a week after it's premiered! Poor planning, m'thinks. Can't wait till Blue Peter, Rani will be on there I suspect. Keep an eye out for TMi too in the coming weeks! Possibly this week.
Can you do a guide on the SJA website's secret content?
We could do, I've found about 4/5 of the bonus features for the current two-parter so far, with a little help from DWF members!
Please share...
I'm not suprised by the ratings at all due to the change in time and considering the fact that quite a few adults watch i, it seems silly that they put the show on earlier when most people are at work or still at classes and i agree about the poor planning with the cinema trailer.
